Synopsis

Album Description

Their fourth full-length and first for Merge Records is a crowning moment. The band has toured with M. Ward, The Constantines, Calexico, Bright Eyes, and Gillian Welch. "I'll Follow You" fully captures the indelible sound that has inspired many to call Oakley Hall one of NY's best live bands. "Americana they are not. The Hall is onto a whole new thing, and that thing is pure American rock music" - Seattle Weekly.

CD Reviews

All Aboard for the Psychedelic -Jam Ride

Rick D. Moore | Delavan, WI USA | 09/16/2007

(5 out of 5 stars)

"It is just plain wrong that this appears to be the first review of what will surely be one of this season's finer albums. But in fairness to the masses, it's only been a year since I saw them open for Calexico. Hopefully, word will text-message its way out quickly to the awaiting masses.

Don't let the low-key opener "Marine Life" fool you. This Brooklyn-based band has the chops to grab the listener by whatever and take them for a psychedelic jam-ride that will leave them eager for more. Case in point, the fun-filled romp of "No Dreams" - an engaging guitar-fest would be at home on any of their previous albums - simply sets you up for the sheer delight of the country-tinged "Rue The Blues." Things then slow down and heat up for "Angela," a touching ballad graced by Rachel Cox's charming vocals and the wonderful "Free Radicals Lament."

The pace picks up again with the appealing "All The Way Down" setting you up for the superb title cut. "I'll Follow You" - the album's finest song - is easily the best Lindsey Buckingham song he never recorded. "First Frist" is a pleasantly relaxed tune sandwiched between the more boisterous "Best of Luck" and "Alive Among Thieves." Although not as engaging, "Rogue Revelator" is nonetheless salvaged from filler status by Pat Sullivan's earnest vocal and some fine guitar work. Fred Wallace's banjo accents the album's finale, the exquisite "Take My Hands, We're Free" bringing closure to an impressive collection of music that should bring this fine and talented band into greater prominence.
